Project description

Cyber security is an integral part of the future of society and organizations. And at the Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥, we want to contribute to a better and safer future by developing a radical innovation (the SAFE Solution), that could potentially replace passwords.

The SAFE Project is funded by Business Finland’s Research to Business funding, to develop and prepare the SAFE Solution for commercialization. The operations of the SAFE Project have the possibility to reach a global scale with immense market potential, as we have a unique idea, based on robust scientific research, and developed from our expert knowledge of the human memory, human-computer interaction, and cyber security. The solution is a new seamless authentication system to support all digital services; that meets the needs of the cybersecurity industry, while considering the needs of users. We envision our solution not just as an application for security-conscious users, but we see our solution being used globally by all users, giving access to all systems and services. It has the potential to change the authentication process for all, making the frustrations with passwords a thing of the past; and finally bringing authentication into the 21st Century.
